Indiana Pacers‘ center Myles Turner is undeniably a rising talent in the NBA, and people are taking notice. Earlier this year, he was selected to the 20-man training camp roster for the Team USA men’s basketball team. While this was a great honor in itself, Myles kind of seemed like a longshot to make the final World Cup roster with some of the other big men that were on the team too.
Turner’s competition to make the final cut included players like Anthony Davis, Andre Drummond, Kevin Love, and Brook Lopez for possible Team USA centers.
